Akash Deep has been in terrific form with the ball, impressing during the IND vs BAN 1st Test match. The 27-year-old fast bowler, known for his pace and swing, grabbed two crucial wickets in the match, making him a valuable prospect for the upcoming IPL 2025 mega auction. Several IPL teams might look to add him to their bowling arsenal. Here are three teams that could target Akash Deep in the IPL 2025 auction:
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)
Akash Deep has previously played for RCB, and the team may look to bring him back to strengthen their bowling attack. With RCB in need of consistent wicket-takers, Akash Deep could be a great fit, and they could even use the Right to Match (RTM) card to re-sign him for the 2025 season.
Punjab Kings (PBKS)
PBKS has been focusing on building a strong bowling unit, and Akash Deep could add both depth and variety to their pace attack. Pairing him with Arshdeep Singh could form a deadly new-ball duo that would boost Punjab’s chances in the tournament.
Delhi Capitals (DC)
DC is known for making smart strategic signings, and Akash Deep could be the ideal addition to their fast-bowling department. With the lack of a consistent left-arm pacer apart from Khaleel Ahmed, Akash Deep might just be the solution Delhi Capitals need for the 2025 season.
